Hello all,
Regarding Toms' alternative choice.
You can purchase a USB plugin device that accepts flash media cards if your computer does not have one.
I saw them in a catalog for CYBERGUYS, and their website is cyberguys.com
They also have portable 8 in 1 USB 2.0 mulit port Media Reader/Writers

Another alternative is a PCMCIA card but this is not possible unless you have the slot.........

Guido,

How old is your laptop?  If it was originally USB1 then you would need
to replace the board to make it USB2 compliant.  Updating the drivers
doesn't do it.  USB1 cannot read USB2.

Barbara,

I am interested in your solution because I have put my old 1GB (doorpost) in an external USB.2 box. I can use it on the Home-PC, but am unabel to get the data if I connect it to my laptop. I use XP prof on the home-pc and the XP home both upgraded to sp2 (the laptop is a ACER travelmate and the home-xp
was included, but it is an Acer-version.) The box contained the
mini-software-CD I used to install the Usb driver under XP, XP still is an
abreviation of eXtra Problems.    Guido
